Sammy got off Santa’s lap and thanked the “elf,” when she handed him a present. He hurried over to where his brother Dean was waiting. Sammy wondered what Santa had given him and he could not wait to open his gift.

“Hey, Sammy. Whatcha you got there?” Dean said.

Sammy shrugged. “I dunno. Where’s Uncle Bobby?”

“He went to pick up a couple more things and he told me to wait here with you.”

“Oh, okay.”

“You gonna open that?”

Sammy looked over at his brother and shrugged. “Won’t Santa get mad if I open it before Christmas?”

Dean shook his head. “Nope.”

Sammy eagerly tore at the wrapping paper. He got enough of it off to realize that what he had hoped was a Gameboy, was a Holiday Barbie. He sighed.

“What’s wrong…? Oh, Santa thought you’re a girl again, hunh?” Dean playfully shoved his brother, hoping he would laugh.

“Yeah…”

Dean wished he knew what do as Sammy’s disappointment was palpable. “Sorry, Sammy.”

“It’s okay, Dean.”

They looked up at the sound of crying. A little girl was very upset over the gift she had gotten. The Winchester brothers exchanged glances.

“You think she’d like this Barbie?” Sammy said.

“Yeah. Come on, let’s go give it to her.” Dean got up and Sammy followed him over to the little girl.

“Hi,” Sammy said shyly.

Dean grinned and turned on the charm. “I think Santa’s so busy he made a mistake, right, Sammy?”

Sammy nodded. “Yeah. I got a Holiday Barbie and ummm… would you like it?” He held out the half opened present.

The little girl sniffled and nodded. She looked over at her mother, who said, “It’s okay, Alex. Thank you boys.”

The little girl smiled and took the Barbie. “Thanks!”

“You’re welcome.”

“Here,” Alex’s mother said as she handed Sammy her daughter’s gift.

“Bye!” Alex waved as she and her mother melted into the crowd.

“Whatcha get?” Dean said as he and Sammy walked back over to the bench they were sitting on.

Sammy grinned. It may not have been a Gameboy, but at least it was a hand held game and not a Barbie doll. “It’s a basketball game.”

“Cool!” Dean grinned. “Let’s ask Uncle Bobby if he’s got any batteries and then we, I mean you, can play with it when we get back.”

“Okay! And you know you can play with it too, Dean.”

“Thanks. Oh, and Sammy, let’s keep this Santa thing to ourselves, okay?”

“Okay. Why?”

“It’ll just upset Uncle Bobby if he thinks we were talking to strangers. The way Dad gets mad when we do.”

“Okay.” The last thing Sammy wanted was Uncle Bobby yelling at Dean the way their dad did when heard they were talking to the girl at the front desk of the motel they were staying in.

“You boys ready to go?” Bobby said, his hands full of shopping bags. It was the boys’ first Christmas with him and he wanted to go all out. “Everything go okay, with Santa?”

“Yeah!” Sammy said. “I wanted a Gameboy, but I still got a basketball game.”

Dean nodded.

“Nice. Now let’s go.”

“Okay,” the boys chorused as they trailed after him. On the way out, they saw Alex and her mother, and Sammy gave her a shy little wave. He was glad as he tightly clutched the basketball game to his chest that they were able to swap their gifts, so that they each got what they wanted. So what if he had to keep it a secret, it was all good in the end.
